Peace Action’s 2020 Class

SENATE

__

MASSACHUSETTS

Ed Markey (D-MA-Senate)

“Throughout my career I have championed education over annihilation, Medicaid over missiles. From advocating for cuts to our nation’s bloated nuclear weapons program, to promoting diplomacy to end conflict…I am grateful to have Peace Action standing beside me as we continue that commitment to peace by preventing Donald Trump from leading the United States into an illegal war.”

ARIZONA

Eva Putzova (D-AZ-01)

“We need to engage the world peacefully, using diplomacy, economic assistance and humanitarian aid instead of military aid, arms sales and bellicose threats. There is no place in this world for nuclear weapons and we should advocate for phased-in disarmament. The entire nuclear weapons program [should be phased-out] since nuclear war is immoral, irrational and a waste of our resources.”

Anita Malik (D-AZ-06)

“To restore our international credibility and encourage peace and stability throughout the world, we must make smart and strategic decisions to defend our homeland while optimizing our diplomatic and cooperative initiatives abroad. We need to align our budget with our priorities and stop pouring money into outdated weapons systems from the Cold War so we can afford to fully fund programs that American workers and families rely on.”

ARKANSAS

Joyce Elliott (D-AR-02)

“We are not using all of our tools and are instead relying on a president who disregards intelligence briefings, acts on ‘instinct’, never compromises, and only knows how to escalate situations to the very brink. We need a strong Congress that will protect diplomats, trust experts, and push back against a president who believes he can do whatever he pleases.”

GEORGIA

Nabilah Islam (D-GA-07)

Nabilah Islam will prioritize diplomacy over endless wars and regime change wars: “It breaks my heart to see our government using military power to determine the lives of millions beyond our borders. While the GOP asks how we’ll pay for vital programs like Medicare for All, they have no problem signing a blank check for destructive wars that destabilize entire regions.”
